Students from any TACS member district (Ira ISD is a member!) can apply for as many of the scholarships as they'd like as long as they meet each scholarship's criteria.

The 1 For 2 Education Foundation is seeking highly motivated applicants of accredited U.S. four-year colleges and universities. Applicants seeking scholarships for U.S. graduate schools are welcome to apply, however, the first priority is given to undergraduate scholars.

The Foundation considers the applicant’s high school academic record, leadership and community service activities, and any letters of recommendation.

While receiving a scholarship from the Foundation, scholars are required to attend the Foundation’s annual gathering. During this time you will have a chance to meet other scholars and directors. You will also be able to participate in personal development learning sessions. The 2019 Gathering will be held on July 26-29, 2019 in Michigan.

Applicants are required to make the following pledge:

In consideration of the 1 For 2 Education Foundation (“the Foundation”) paying for my tuition, I pledge to support the mission of the Foundation to build a community of scholars who are dedicated to being life-long learners by:

a)Participating in the annual Foundation Gathering and supporting my fellow scholars’ academic and career goals

b) Paying for the tuition for a comparable education of two persons, who are not related to me by blood, adoption, or marriage, during my lifetime

Confirm eligibility to maintain scholarship:

Scholars need to be full-time students and maintain a 3.0 GPA and will be required to provide proof of grades each semester.

Preference will be given to those applicants who apply before February 28, 2019. However, applications will be accepted until April 30, 2019.

Approved recipients can receive matching scholarships of tuition units worth up to $1,000 at today's prices, and top-scoring recipients can also receive a one-time grant of tuition units worth $2,000 at today's prices. These scholarship tuition units can be used at Texas public colleges and universities.

Winning scholarships can be sweet – especially with this special a la mode award for scholarship seekers who love ice cream.

Are you simple and sweet like vanilla, classic yet unpredictable like chocolate chip, or a little nutty like pistachio? Whatever the flavor or reasons may be, we want to know what ice cream flavor best reflects your personality and why.

July is National Ice Cream Month, and we need a little help picking out a “Flavor of the Month” for our famous ice cream scholarship. Tell us all about your ice cream flavor, and you could scoop up a sweet $1,500 scholarship.

Our Shout It Out Scholarship committee wants to know what you have to say. Whether it’s a message for the world or just a quick “hi mom,” this is your opportunity to speak up and win money for college. We’re listening!

Let your keyboard be your megaphone, and shout out your message. This unique scholarship gives you the platform to speak up – and cash in. The “loudest” applicant will receive the $1,500 Shout It Out Scholarship reward.
